PHILADELPHIA -- Evgeni Malkin scored twice, including the tiebreaker in the third period, and Sidney Crosby?had two goals to lead the Pittsburgh Penguins to a 5-4 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday. Air Force 1 Pas Cher France .Malkins game winner was his 300th career goal.Matt Cullen also scored for the Penguins, who scored three times in a 55-second span in the first period while opening a four-game road trip with their fourth win in the past five. Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 38 shots while making his ninth straight start (6-2-1).Jakub Voracek scored twice for the Flyers, and Claude Giroux and Wayne Simmonds each had one for Philadelphia. Steve Mason started and gave up three goals on 13 shots in the first period. Michal Neuvirth replaced him to start the second and finished with 12 saves on 14 shots.Matt Murray, who led the Penguins to the Stanley Cup last season, was available as Fleurys backup. Murray, recovering from a broken hand, hasnt played this season.Malkin put the Penguins ahead for good with his milestone goal at 8:33 of the third. Olli Maatta threw the puck toward the net. It bounced off the leg of Philadelphias Brandon Manning and to the back post, where a wide-open Malkin shot past Neuvirth.Crosby, who missed the first six games due to a concussion, has four goals and five points in three games since returning.Trailing 2-0, the Penguins scored three goals during an electrifying 55 seconds late in the first period.Crosby beat Mason short-side from a bad angle with a top-shelf wrist shot with 4:16 left in the period. Forty-three seconds later, Crosby netted a power-play goal after one-timing a pass from Patric Hornqvist in the slot that whizzed by Mason. Cullen ended the onslaught with a wraparound tally with 3:21 remaining.The only other time Philadelphia allowed three goals in 55 seconds or less was Nov. 23, 1991, when the Devils tallied three in 42 seconds in the second period of a 5-5 tie. Pittsburgh capitalized on a turnover by Sean Couturier to take a 4-2 lead on Malkins goal midway through the second period.The Flyers got back within one goal on Girouxs power-play tally with 6:44 remaining in the period. Radko Gudas made a stellar play to keep the puck in the offensive zone before Wayne Simmonds fed Giroux for a one-timer from the slot that beat Fleury on the glove side.The play was upheld after a lengthy review to determine whether Philadelphia was offside on the play. The Flyers tied it 2:12 later on Voraceks penalty shot, which was awarded after the Flyers right wing was pulled down by Brian Dumoulin on a breakaway attempt.GAME NOTESThe Flyers were playing their fifth game in eight nights and were on the front end of a back-to-back. ... Giroux extended his points streak to eight straight games. ... Pittsburgh D Kris Letang (upper body) missed his fifth straight game but is close to a return. ... Voraceks penalty shot snapped a string of six straight misses and was Philadelphias first successful conversion since Matt Reads tally on Nov. 13, 2011. ... The Flyers scored first for just the second time this season and now have three first-period goals on the season.UP NEXTPenguins: At Anaheim on Wednesday.Flyers: At Carolina on Sunday. Air Max 95 Pas Cher France . Then the Pacers gave Oladipo and his Orlando teammates the cold shoulder. Paul Georges buzzer-beating 3-pointer at the end of the third quarter spurred a 21-4 run, finally sending Indiana past the Magic 97-87 in a tougher-than-expected opening night matchup. Yeezy 350 v2 France . MORITZ, Switzerland -- Fog prevented downhill racers from getting their Olympic dress rehearsal. http://www.airmaxpaschervente.fr/ . -- Matt Ryan needed one of the best games of his career to lead the Falcons and their depleted offence out of their three-game losing streak last week. (STATS) -- The Citadel didnt lose a game to an FCS opponent all season, but it found itself in desperate need of a fourth-quarter comeback on numerous occasions.Perhaps no team was more convinced it had the Bulldogs beaten than Wofford.The Terriers couldnt close it out in October, but theyll get another crack at their Southern Conference rivals Saturday in Charleston with a trip to the quarterfinals on the line.The Citadel (10-1) trailed their first three opponents in the final three minutes before rallying, and though the deficit never quite got to that particularly late state October 22 in Spartanburg, Wofford (9-3) seemed to be well on its way to busting the Bulldogs perfect start. But Brandon Goodsons ill-advised option pitch was picked off by SoCon defensive player of the year Kailik Williams and returned for a 13-yard score with 5:57 left, knotting the score at 21.In overtime, another mistake proved to be one too many. After the Bulldogs Cody Clark kicked a 21-yard field goal on the opening possession, running back Will Gay fumbled at the 13, with the Terriers fourth turnover of the day closing out a Citadel victory.It was a win, but it felt a little bit like a loss on that day, Bulldogs coach Brent Thompson said. Not a high point of our 2016 season.If The Citadel felt that guilty about a victory, its easy to imagine how the other side felt.This is one that will stick in your craw for a while, coach Mike Ayers said.Not too long, evidently. Wofford closed the regular season on a four-game winning streak with a 36-28 win at Chattanooga providing its signature victory, then slipped past Charleston Southern 15-14 in the first round on Lorenzo Longs 32-yard run late in the third quarter.Our mission was that we were going to win out and maybe see (The Citadel) later on, Wofford linebacker Terrance Morris told the Spartanburg Herald-Journal. Look what happened.There will be no mysteries at Johnson Hagood Stadium on Saturday. Both teams run the triple option. Both are among the top five rushing teams in the nation, with The Citadels 358.5 yards per game at No. 1. Both have 32 touchdowns on the ground.The difference could come on the defensive side. Wofford allows just 2.7 yards per carry, 1.3 fewer than The Citadel gives up, and those differentials held true in October. The Bulldogs averaged 3.7 yards on 51 carries and the Terriers tooted it 60 times for 5. Air Max 270 Pas Cher France. .0 per carry.But, oh, those turnovers.Im treating it just like any other game -- at least Im trying to, Gay said of the rematch. Im trying not to overthink it. Once we get there, I know Ill be thinking a lot about (the fumble). It will make me go even harder.If he can go at all. Gay and fellow running back Lennox McAfee left the Charleston Southern game with injuries, and while Gay came back in to return a punt -- seemingly leaving him at least questionable -- McAfee was carted off with a leg issue.Theyre hardly the only ones. Both starting inside linebackers -- Lincoln Stewart and Datavious Wilson -- were also hurt against the Buccaneers, with Stewart needing to be carried off after lying motionless after a tackle. It turned out to be nothing more than a pinched nerve, and Stewart may play this week. Hes the third Terriers linebacker to be carted off with a frightening injury this season after Michael Roach went into cardiac arrest and John Patterson suffered fractured vertebrae in his neck.The Bulldogs are healthier, though slotback Cam Jackson is questionable after missing two games with a bruised thigh, and have had a week to rest. But like a lot of teams at this time of year, theyre not exactly looking forward to facing an opponent theyve seen before.Its not something we were looking forward to, facing a SoCon opponent, Thompson said. Especially an opponent that knows you so well, and weve had some really good football games over the last few years with them.Both teams have reliable kickers, though theres no question which has the bigger leg. Woffords David Marvin hit 15 of his 19 field-s hgoal attempts this season, going a remarkable 5 of 6 from beyond 50 yards. He did miss from 49 in the first game against The Citadel, though, a kick that could have made the difference.But it starts on the ground. Tyler Renew is the Bulldogs 1,000-yard back, and he knows a similar offensive performance to the October meeting could leave his team one-and-done this postseason.Our fundamentals were pretty poor the first time we played them, and we practiced that a lot in the last week, Renew said. Were excited to take the field Saturday, execute really well and perform at a high level. ' ' '
